Happy Easter

My Angel's first Easter was a bright and beautiful and peaceful day. She actually came with me to primary since my sweet husband and I were both teaching (he usually gets her during church) and my little sister who was visting from CA held her for me during my lesson. We talked about the Savior and His role in our lives and the reason for the Holiday. I truly appreciate the church lesson manuals and the spirit they bring when you teach the true doctrine found in them. (even if the 5 year olds you are teaching don't quite get it) I am so blessed to know the truth of the Restored Gospel.

After church we reveled in the beauty of the day outside in our own front yard (which is actually green again after the dead winter. hooary!)

New Easter dress = photo shoot time. Good thing I have a captivating subject. Her smiles are infectious and her temperment is delightful. She brightens the day of all who meet her. She couldn't be more fun to be around and I think she gets that from her father, my dear sweet husband. He is kind and loving and makes me a better person than I would be without him. Thank you, honey, for giving me the cutest child on earth (she gets it from you.)

After outside pictures we went in to bake an easter bunny cake. We donned our "Mommy and Me" aprons and took more pictures, of course. Then we got to work.

The end product was yummy but the best part was just being together with family. Because that is what Easter is all about, right? The Savior died and was resurrected so that we could all be resurrected too and live together with our families for Eternity. For which I am so grateful.
